How do I recover files on a phone stuck in boot loop and safe mode doesnt work?

[AC Question]

My phone is stuck in boot loop, meaning it just shows the LG logo and carrier introduction over and over but never gets to the home screen. I tried the safe mode button combo (power key to turn on, then hold volume down button when LG logo appears), but that doesn't work for some reason. I didn't download any fishy apps or alter anything on the phone, my phone is just over 2 years old.

What I really need is to recover the files saved on the phone, that is my end game here. Any help is appreciated.

Not sure on your phone....but can you remove battery? if so, try that...but while battery is out..hold power button down for 5 seconds, with no battery in, then replace, reboot.

It's an LG Optimus F7. Tried your idea. Didn't work.
